{"product_id":"hornsey-lidded-tea-jar","title":"1970s Hornsea Heirloom Tea Storage Jar in Autumn Brown","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMade in East Yorkshire and adored in kitchens across Britain, the Heirloom range remains one of Hornsea Pottery's most recognisable designs. Launched in 1967 and drawn by John Clappison, it defined the look of the 1970s home with its glossy autumn brown glaze and that repeating motif banding the body like a row of stitched pattern. This lidded tea jar sits right at the heart of that range, the word TEA raised proudly around its middle and a warm teak lid resting on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWe love how honest it feels in the hand. The stoneware has real weight to it, the glaze catches the light, and the grain of the wooden lid softens the whole piece. At 11 x 12 cm it holds a generous scoop of loose leaf or teabags, though plenty of buyers give these a second life holding cotton wool, kitchen odds and ends, or a little bunch of dried stems. Standing on an open shelf it draws the eye every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCondition is lovely for its age. The glaze is bright with no chips or cracks, the pattern is crisp, and the base carries the Hornsea mark. The teak lid seats neatly with the gentle patina you would expect from a piece that has lived a full life, and small signs of use only add to its character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eStyle it as part of a Hornsea grouping if you already collect the range, or let it stand alone against pale walls where the brown glows in the light. It works beside a coffee grinder and a stack of vintage cookbooks as happily as it does on a dresser. This is the kind of piece that turns a working kitchen into somewhere with a bit of soul.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Blue Loft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53927136100679,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/3921\/9015\/files\/1A3FBE91-C45E-4A1B-AD31-5AC12F0F02ED.jpg?v=1779033877","url":"https:\/\/www.theblueloft.co.uk\/products\/hornsey-lidded-tea-jar","provider":"The Blue Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
